Is there anyone else who might be going to either of the two games?

I believe the Miami game is Saturday in the afternoon.

For anyone that's going tonight to Nets vs. Toronto I'll be wearing a green jacket with a purple stripe across the center, and a white triangle in the upper right-hand corner with the words "Island Lake" on it. Look for a pretty young guy- I'm 17, with brown hair and brown eyes. I'll be waiting around the entrance to section 101 during halftime, and maybe before the game as well. I'm sitting on the floor, 3 chairs away from the Nets' bench, if you want to look for me during the game or on TV. Since I'm still mad I didn't get to meet anyone the last time I was at a game, I'm being ultra-specific. I'm leaving for the game in 8 minutes.

Great game tonight. I got Jason Kidd's armband at the end, so it was all good.

Is that a "pretty (fairly) young guy", or a "pretty [and] young guy"?

Anyway...

Marbury is a BITCH!!

I thought the same thing. Just needs a comma after "pretty".

Stephon Marbury? At least he played the whole game. How about Elton Brand? 21 mins, 2-6, 1 rebount, 7 fantasy pts.

Wednesday

DB 866 114.9 125 (+10.0) 991 110.0
JG 813 114.3 107 (-07.3) 920 115.0
PL 781 116.1 095 (-21.1) 876 111.9
PP 786 116.2 085 (-31.2) 871 117.1
SP 689 114.4 113 (-01.4) 802 110.5

I'll put TM back if he starts playing again

--------------------
2 more days 'till Big Daddy (unless he wusses out)

Make that three people who thought the same thing...

As for Brand, we were both screwed by that blowout, plaw. Nash barely played in the second half. :rolleyes:

Yeah, but your screwing got you 20 points.

But it could have been 30!

Plaw, JG, Val, what's the mood like with the Nets right now with this 14 game win streak? Are the locals as excited as SportsCenter is? It seems to lead off every broadcast.

The real fans (like me) are excited. There just aren't very many of us

17,000 is still a great crowd in a building that holds 20,000, is the home of the two-time conference champion, and is only about 7 miles from Manhattan (altho the only public transportation out there is by an inconvenient bus).

There's rarely any excitement or electricity at a regular season game. The fans get more excited when they start tossing free tee shirts into the stands than they do for anything that happens on the court.

The team loses $20 million a year. I guesS that's why they want to move.

Thursday

DB 991 110.0 098 (-12.0) 1089 107.9 The start of his long-awaited slump?
JG 920 115.0 127 (+12.0) 1047 109.7 Will be happy to finish second
PL 876 111.9 117 (+05.1) 0993 106.6 Not worried--it's a long season
PP 871 117.1 103 (-14.1) 0974 103.6 Fading. Watch your back, Pat
SP 802 110.5 117 (+06.5) 0919 107.8 Rounding into form
TM 801.........073............0874 106.7 Can he recover from 3 missed days?
LE 404..........133............0537 106.6 He's baaaaaaaaack! Too little too late?

Screwed again by a blowout...

COMMISSIONER'S DECREE:

Michaerl Finley and Kirk Hinrich are now on DB's "Cannot Play" list.

He may no longer pick either one. If he does, any points that they score will be deducted from his total.

When's Webber coming back?

Ginobili is a bitch.

And shit, so are the freakin' Bulls this year. 50/50 chance and I lose. Par for the course...

Anyway, c'mon, Douche... give someone a chance to catch up?? lol

Jeeze...What a whiner .

Act like a man :p

Friday

LE. 0537 106.6 111 (+04.4) 0648 109.2

Man, 3 points away from the high for the night... That's another goal of mine - to get the highest score of the night for the entire league at least one time.

COMMISSIONER DEPUTY DECREE:

Ignore Commissioner Decrees!

That's what you're worried about? If I were you, I'd be more concerned with my hot streak that's gonna start tonight.

I'm not worried about it, I said it was a goal of mine. Anyway, there's a certain appeal to, at least for one night, beating 62,800+ people in a game.

My ultimate goal is beating a particular set of 5 or 6 people for the season, though!

Oh, you want to win the whole season, huh?

I don't remember saying anything about the whole season counting for anything. It's two separate games, first half and second half.

And remember: I won the first half. And no one can ever take that away from me. No One. Ever. :p

Hmmm... sounds awfully familiar... oh yea, that's right... That's what I said at the end of the baseball season!

Well, we're 10 days into the second half, and no Big Daddy.

He wussed out again. :p

Yo - Big Daddy in Da House, giving a shout out to all my peeps

I see you guys have been busy this week - I saw you were all in the chat box the other night with that Dejohn guy. I copied some of the threads you will need to get past some of the initial posts though ...


Excerpt:

Tis, it is a shame that Capo isn't here

Young kid like capo would love to talk about writing

I will post part of this transcript on the site. Dejohn, what advice would you have for a young aspiring writer?

Try to write something, anything everyday. Also try to write about something that you are passionate about. In that way it won't feel like work.

Just like working for a living- love it or leave it....

amen.

Great writers can make you see the people and action, by using just words. Great if you have the talent

Hello All, I haven’t read nor plan to read this book – I am much too busy with Fantasy Basketball. If you didn’t know I am the commissioner and the second half just started and there is opportunity for anyone to join.

Hey look who it is Pee-Lawrence, a bit early for a pee break isn’t it?

Never too early, tell Pops I said ‘hi’

can we please get back to the topic here

Haven’t you ever been told to respect your elders, you’re still mad cause you lost the first half of basketball and all of baseball :p

I heard this is where the action is

Hey it’s my worthy adversary – DB, how are you doing?

Hey I live in Chicago how do you think I’m doing, I get to root for Da Bears and Da Cubbies

Hell DS looks like everyone is here – what are the odds of that?

Well actually if you take the total number of people and factor in the time of the days and ....

What a bunch of goobers on this board, why did I ever agree to this?

Oh you ain’t seen nothing yet, wait till the young pups crash in

All we need are Buffy, Crabby and Big Daddy

Oh Big Daddy ain’t showing up, just like basketball – he’s a wuss .

Gee reading that I'm sorry I missed all the fun. So needless to say I won't be joining 10 days late. Actually don't get much of a chance to visit and if I can't par-tay in the daily trash talk than where is the fun? I am busy - got a new job - actually got a new life, got a new wife and the family is fine da da da - Opps sorry - Billy Joel there. Actually did start a new job and don't visit here during the day and once in blue moon at night. I'll continue to pop in here and there - giving a shout out - talking a bit of smack. I don't feel so bad now that I see that PL's young Protégé is back. Lil' PL is back in the nest - I am sure PL is full of pride now. :rolleyes:

So since I don't get here much I figure I would at least share a little impersonation I have been working on - you remember my talents from the baseball days ...



Whose Winning ? Go DB

Thank you, thank you don't forget to take care of your waiters and waitresses, their working hard for you tonight and don't forget to try the veal.

Maybe if you all play nice - Crabby will come back, I bet she is still playing on the side, like in baseball.

Ok so my job is done here Tonto. You 'kids' continue on with your game. Remember don't run with scissors in your hands. Hey did I mention lately that I won the Football Survivor Pool, was supposed to get a poster but

:p

Ok now I am going - really - just giving a shout out to my peeps. As you were .....

The man kept his word... sort of... :rolleyes:

It sounds like DB drugs have kicked in and are working great.... Little Pl will have to carry the load now.

Sigh... still at work...

Here's an impersonation for you, FS:

Hey FS, you mind putting a couple of commas there in your post so I can figure out what you are talking about?

OK, maybe it was more of a request than an impersonation!

Did you mean:

It sounds like, DB, drugs have kicked in and are working great.... Little Pl will have to carry the load now.

or

It sounds like DB - drugs have kicked in and are working great.... Little Pl will have to carry the load now.
